English translation

By 58 the Lord Commander and the Council strengthened with the vendor Oelof Bergh as a summed up lith of this meeting, seeing that the fiscal of this residence Mr. Tobias Vlasvath, until then completely incompetent in Council as otherwise, had assumed the rank above the lieutenant and head of the militia Jeronimus Cruse himself, regardless of the aforementioned lieutenant on the prescription of here to Her Highness Ede, in the Patria near Her Highness Ede. Latest General Letter dated … January of this year 59, it was approved that we have appointed him in place of Captain Smient60 (who has always presided over the aforementioned fiscal), consequently not competing with him in the least. It is therefore unanimously decided that the aforementioned lieutenant will henceforth assume the role of the aforementioned fiscal who will succeed him in rank.

Thus decided and resolved at the Castle of Good Hope, date 11/11/1959.
